Az izraeli hadsereg: Meglepett minket Asszad rezsimjének gyors bukása, de megakadályozzuk a fegyverek lázadók kezébe kerülését

Az izraeli hadsereg erői a szíriai határ menti övezet közelében, ma – Fotó: Matias Delacroix / AP Az izraeli hadsereg közlése szerint az izraeli hírszerzést meglepte, hogy Bassár Asszad szíriai elnök rezsimje ilyen gyorsan a lázadók kezére került. Az elmúlt hónapok értékelése szerint Asszad az iráni, orosz és Hezbollah-támogatással megszilárdította hatalmát, és képes volt kihasználni a Hezbollah…

Judd Legum at Popular Information:

Karen Cahall has been a teacher in the New Richmond School District in Ohio for 34 years. During that time, according to a lawsuit Cahall filed earlier this month, she "consistently received excellent evaluations for her job performance and teaching excellence." Cahall, who teaches third grade, was recently suspended for three days without pay and threatened with termination. She was punished for offering four books in her classroom library that contained LGBTQ characters. Cahall's classroom library includes about 100 books. These books are not part of Cahall's curriculum and are not required reading for any student. Like many teachers, Cahall has them on hand to encourage students to read more books. Among the books in Cahall's library were four that have LGBTQ characters: Ana On The Edge, The Fabulous Zed Watson!, Hazel Bly and the Deep Blue Sea, and Too Bright to See. These books, the lawsuit argues, do not "describe sexual conduct or sexual activity" and "do not… advocate for or against any particular lifestyle." Rather, the books "deal with characters who are LGBTQ+ and are coming to terms with feeling different and excluded simply because they are LGBTQ+." [...] On October 30, 2024, a parent became aware of the books and sent an email complaining to the principal of Cahall's school, Monroe Elementary, and to every member of the New Richmond Board of Education. The email was forwarded to New Richmond Superintendent Tracey Miller, who quickly scheduled a "pre-disciplinary hearing on November 4, 2024."

According to Miller, Cahall's inclusion of these books in her classroom library violated school district policy. The specific policy at issue, according to a letter from Miller to Cahall, is Policy 2240. [...] On November 6, Miller sent Cahall a letter informing Cahall that she was suspended for three days without pay. Miller accused Cahall of "intentional and serious violation of Board policy and procedure" by placing books in her "classroom library that contained themes and discussion of topics of a controversial nature." Miller said that Cahall should have known that including the books in her classroom library was unacceptable because "based on your experience in this community you understand the values that many hold." Miller said Cahall's behavior was "completely unacceptable, will not be tolerated and warrants significant discipline." Miller said that if Cahall continues "to behave in this manner in the future" she may be terminated.

Cahall has filed a civil lawsuit against Miller and the New Richmond School District, arguing that their actions were unconstitutional. First, Cahall argues that the "controversial issues" policy violates her 14th Amendment right to due process because it is impermissibly vague — both on its face and as applied to Cahall's situation. She argues that a reasonable person could not discern from reading the policy what would be considered a "controversial issue" or that a classroom library that was not part of the curriculum would be considered an "instructional program." Second, the lawsuit argues that Cahall included the books in her classroom library because of her "sincerely held moral and religious belief" that all children — including LGBTQ children — should be treated with dignity and respect.

[...] The suspension of Cahall is part of a broader effort to prohibit any acknowledgment of LGBTQ people in classrooms. According to right-wing groups like Moms for Liberty, books with LGBTQ characters, rainbow flags, or celebrating Pride Month are an effort to indoctrinate and corrupt children. Teachers who fail to conform to this ideological agenda, like Cahall, are targeted and disciplined.

Teacher Karen Cahall, who has taught at New Richmond Exempted Village School District schools for 34 years, has been suspended for including four books containing LGBTQ+ characters in her classroom library. This reeks of overreach by right-wing “parental rights” extremists.

DWC 2024 - Day 5 - Captive/Skill

Everything was getting hazier by the moment as his vision focused in on the elf, the acting breathing was so tiring as he lay still under the eye of the watcher. There were a million and one questions running through his brain to ask, but the only one at the forefront was if he could just sleep. Sleeping sounded so nice at this point as grew stiller by the blink.

"I understand time is not something to really worry about, but I would like to insist on an answer sooner than later," the elf continued as he leaned closer into the orc's face. His skin was dark purple like a night elf's and the eyes the standard glowing yellow but there something far more otherworldly. There shouldn't be pupils. Sand. Swirling sand.

A smooth hand came to gently brush open his eyes again as he looked up at the elf who was smiling sadly as he was showing a hope in those eyes. "Sevlaz, it is time. Otherwise we will have to do this over again and I am loathe to do it again to you. Flowing is easier on you than it is to reverse it. Six times is far to many."

Six? Six times? How many times did he have to die?

"Six."

A soft nod given.

"Indeed my long suffering friend, hell is repetition and I do not wish you suffer in it any longer than you must. So please, could you give me an answer this time? You are chosen and I feel you best suited but I will not choose for you. Consent is key."

Consent. So tired.

Tired.

"Drat."

@daily-writing-challenge

How a 10 foot, half ton tauren could come up behind him without making a noise was something a marvel for Sevlaz as he looked up into the brindle faced male. Sheared horns, bronze nose ring, and one hard pale blue eye only addedto the intimidation the warrior of his arsenal as he stared back at the orc.

"Grin."

There was a heavy cough as Sevlaz cleared his throat and started to stand up. "Raincal-"

The thick three fingered hand caught him in the chest and with the ease of pushing over a child sat Sevlaz back on his stool. "Sit."

"Right, sure thing," Sevlaz answered as he noted how easily he was forced back down. "What can I-"

"Shutup."

"Alright."

The tauren leaden down to look him in the eye, his bearded jaw set firm as he spoke. "You know why I'm here."

"Uh, I would think an omelet or perhaps one of these kabobs. Erik could you fox- er fix up a stick or seven for..?" The thief was turning back toward the cook. Unceremoniously the above flap clattered down to seal off the cooking area of the vulpera's, the wood vibrating the painted on sad face with a word bubble 'Closed!' Sevlaz growled and faced the mercenary again. "Sorry looks like they're closed now."

"Pity," the deep baritone was short and hard as he never broke his gaze.

"Very much so, Cah. And I would guess you're here per An'wei."

The tauren mercenary, Cahall would nod curtly. "You'd be right."

"About the job?"

"Two for two."

"Well, I mean it's just taking me a bit to get an in and these things take time. Silvermoon isn't what it used to be," Sevlaz continued to press the conversation, his hands talking as much as he was. "My old contacts are either reformed, abroad, or well..."

"Dead."

"Exactly," the thief added as turned his permanent grin to to Cahall again. The tauren was not smiling. He never did.

There was a moment Sevlaz believed that was how the conversation was going to end, but that huge hand would reach forward and gently slip it's wrist thick fingers through the leather straps of Sev's vest. If he'd been shoved back into his seat like a newborn, he was lifted just the same like a kitten to dangle in the air at the tauren's eye level. There might have been an urge to kick out or struggle but knowing the warrior's reputation, it would have just ended a lot worse for him.

"Per the contract," Cahall growled softly as he drew the orc closer to his face. "You got one week to have it in the broker's hands. If not, I will be bringing back you back to them."

"One. Piece. At. A. Time." Each word was emphasized like a gong struck, no eye contact broken and inches only between the pair.

The thief cleared his throat again, the guttural gunk in his throat cleared and swallowed once again. "I'll do what I can."

"I'm sure." And the orc was lowered again to the ground. "I'm sorry."

"Sorry? I mean it's fine, you're doing your job. It's what you do," Sev answered breathlessly as he found him counting his blessing to feel the dirt under his feet again. The warrior's grip was still tight about the straps on his chest as he heard the creak of the fist growing firmer.

There was a shake of Cahall's shaggy head. A grunt of effort matching the lift while the muscles flexed to propel the orc from the ground.

"Wait! Wait! WA-" Sevlaz started to yell as he felt the earth disappear beneath him again. Air was rushing in his ears as the eerie feeling of weightlessness took over to speed him across the street barely having time to lift his arms to shield him from the impending landing. Thankfully the fruit stand across from Erik's was gracious enough to break his fall.

"My mangos!' The shrill scream of the vendor echoed throughout the street as the wreckage of his livelihood littered the ground and the bruised orc thief. Sevlaz groaned from the pile of broken fruit as he saw the world upside down, the lumbering form of the warrior striding off into the capital.

His red gaze should be filled with rage at being manhandled but instead red fur and golden eyes.

"Sev!" Erik yelled as he began to pull the orc back up around from his upside down heap into a sitting heap. "You alright?"

Sevlaz nodded as he wiped some mushed mango from his face.

"Good good good," the vulpera continued before opening his palm. "So it's gonna be like two gold for those kabobs."

A handful of crushed fruit was hardly the tip he expected.

A few cast members of my story, OMEGAlomaniac!, answer the simple question:

What do you call "sex"?

This was a result of me tryna make something quick. I get that this meme isn’t necessarily "relevant", but this was essentially just an exercise to see how quick I could finish this. I plan to do more like this, I have a few memes I could work with

alright I've gotten some music down for 5 of my characters 🙏 they're a bit more specific than just my music taste, but still :3

Damilo (the butcher) would love typical 80's/90's eurodance and pop, Italian disco, anything catchy enough that it would get stuck in his head at work but not too complicated :3 he likes to dance so he's a sucker for a good tune

1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 5

Vinnie (the keyholder) would probably like music that feels soft, sad and longing, something quiet that won't bother him. Anything less mellow he'd like for when he's upset, def here for the melancholic vibe

1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 5

Heath (the firewatch) would enjoy something acoustic, probably something with twang, a country feel, he's pretty basic in his tastes and wouldn't like anything too chaotic and crazy, but maybe still some "I miss my mom" and other heartbreak country man angst

1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 5

Nigel (the chimney sweep) is pretty hard since he doesnt strike me as the type to listen to music, but if he did it would be something dark and droning, idrk the different names of metal subgenres but whatever fossilization is it would be stuff like that ⬇️ also metalcore

1 - 2

Damir (the storyteller) is probable the most modern of everyone, he'd like general alternative/indie/pop, and also trip hop :3 he'd prefer a more chill vibe but would like the alternative pop to dance to

1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 5

I love thinking of this prompt !!! So fun

If your idv ocs could listen to any music, any era no matter the time period what do you think they'd enjoy? 🤔

OOOOH THIS IS SO FUN

I love a lot of music so I think this would be fun to see

historian strikes me as a discordant music enjoyer, shit with crazy arrangements would probably strike their fancy and I think they'd also enjoy russian shit too?

here's five examples for you

launderer likes crazy shit too but in a different manner, they strike me more as a delighted and sinister bitch where their stuff can have more of an upbeat feel to it but the lyrics are so off kilter

here's five examples for you

threader seems like they'd like stuff that has a bit more of a roughness and twang to it, plus stuff that just generally has a low level anger simmering in it

here's five examples for you

I think staff vastly prefers instrumentals with a melancholy vibe to it, something lowkey and mellow for the most part

here's five examples for you

what about your ocs 🤔 I'd love to know more about your music taste in general

Felix had been planning his revenge. 

After Seungmin’s merciless teasing the day before, Lixie was ready to make the puppy have a taste of his own medicine, and now was the perfect opportunity. 

Seungmin relaxed onto the couch, chatting with Minho over the phone as Felix crept up on him from behind. 

Felix could see Seungmin’s expression shift as he began talking to Minho, a warm smile spreading across his face. 

The soft sound of their conversation filled the room, but all Felix could focus on was the way Seungmin’s arms were relaxed, exposing his vulnerable armpits.

With a mischievous glint in his eyes, Felix slowly crept closer, ready to execute his plan. 

He wiggled his fingers, grinning to himself, then suddenly lunged forward, digging his fingers into Seungmin’s sides before quickly transitioning to his armpits.

Seungmin’s response was instantaneous. His body jerked, a surprised yelp escaping his lips as he bit down on his lower lip to stifle the laugh that threatened to spill out. “H-Hey!! Lix! I’m on a cahall!!” He shrieked gently, squirming side to side as Felix grinned behind him. 

“Hey, what’s going on?” Minho’s voice echoed through the phone, confusion lacing his words. 

“N-Nothing!!” Seungmin exclaimed, trying to maintain his composure but clearly struggling. His cheeks were flushed with a mix of embarrassment and excitement as he shot a glare back at Felix, who was reveling in his member’s reaction. “Lixie is just—AH!! He keeps t-touching my—my makeup!!” Seungmin muttered, giggles threatening to overflow. 

Felix slipped a finger into Minnie’s belly button. 

Seungmin gasped, biting his lip harder, his voice rising in pitch. He twisted and turned, trying to escape Felix’s grip, but Lixie was relentless, a playful glint in his eyes.

“AHAHAA—Mihinho hyuhuhung!! HEHEEHEHELP!!” The puppy gave in, laughter pouring from his lips as he dropped his phone on the couch, squealing and laughing and twisting adorably as Lixie’s fingers found every single spot to make him suffer. 

“Oh Seungminnie~” Minho teased over the phone, giggling as Seungmin howled, Felix’s eyes twinkled.  

With one final, determined effort, Seungmin managed to twist away from Felix’s grasp, darting to the opposite side of the couch, his face flushed and laughter still spilling from his lips. “Youhuhure so dead!!” He managed to say between breaths, a mixture of annoyance and amusement evident in his tone.

Felix, still laughing, leaned against the back of the couch, exhilarated by the successful execution of his plan.

Seungmin finally caught his breath, leaning against the couch with a mix of exasperation and glee. “You’re the worst!!”

“Oh Seungmin?” Came a voice from the phone. “I’m on my way~”

"And you?"

"Me?" The steward blinked as he looked past the floating plate biscuits between the pair. Coren's eyes unfocused for a moment and returned curious at such a question. He'd never thought about it very much. "I would say 'hopeful for all, but doomed by his fate."

"Cryptic."

The older looking man shrugged as he stirred his tea with a small spoon. "Life within an hourglass."
